Popular Post Tallbald Posted May 13, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 (edited) Wanting to give my beloved Penny something not available at a florist shop for Mother's Day tomorrow, I made a small walnut sasquatch and doweled it to a 1 inch thick oak scrap. The gravel is from our landscaping and "dead shrubs" are dogwood twigs from our trees. A layer of epoxy secures the gravel and drilled holes hold the shrubs. Finished with a coating of brushed on walnut oil. Model is about 8 inches tall overall. Penny was excited and loved it. We both enjoy Bigfoot stories and speculation. A message of my love is underneath. So much fun folks. The Pegas 7R MGT blade let me make one cut for the entire sasquatch outline in the 13/16 inch thick scrap walnut and 1 inch oak. No sanding needed except to break the edge. Did I say it was so much fun? Thank you each and all for your kindnesses, and my best to you all. Don.

flarud Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 Looks good! I love Bigfoot! My wife is a non-believer and I am always teasing her about Bigfoot. I have several patterns but to date have only cut one. ChelCass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

preprius Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 Very unique. I love the presentation, on a cookie sheet. Bogy creek monster was a movie that was popular when I was a teen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
